Have you ever been in love? A lot of us are terrified to be in love and will deny its truth, even if all the signs are there. Even if you haven't yet said the ever-dreaded L-word to your person, even if you're not officially "together" and even if you have absolutely no intention to be in love, you very well might be. Love can present itself in mysterious, ridiculous ways. This person may have not yet realized you're always right duh , and every time he or she does something stupid, you just want to shake his or her big, dumb head.
Half of the time, this person makes you want to scream, and you communicate this with passion in your voice. No matter how frustrating this person gets, you never stop wanting to be with him or her. You're beginning to realize the opposite of love isn't hate, but rather, it's indifference.
Hate and love are very similar. You could be talking about absurd names for a dog, and you will still always remember that conversation because the two of you somehow made it riveting and worthwhile. There's no such thing as small talk with the two of you. Even talking about the weather means something. What you're actually saying doesn't matter at all; you're just saying words because you're together, enjoying each other's company.
If the two of you are talking, it's always amazing, no matter what it's about. Even if it's a 3 am phone conversation and you're both half-asleep, it's still the best thing ever.
It's not always easy to be with someone. Sometimes, there's distance involved or you're both too busy to breathe, or the entire universe seems to be conspiring to keep you apart. Sometimes, it takes planning, scheduling, rescheduling and a whole lot of finagling to make seeing this person work; yet, you're always willing to do it. It all seems insane, and yet, you've never questioned it.
